You can listen to all your music or select permade playlists. As well you can choose to listen just an artist or album.

no, once you choose one that is the one you are in, it doesn't go to the next artist or album in sequence. (And won't skip to a new artist or album even if you shuffle.) The way to include many and various is to create a playlist and then shuffle that if you'd like, so it skips around and mixes it up.

It will play a folder so if you start the first one it will play the next in sequence is that what you mean ?

I think if your're in playlist mode you can but i think once youre playing a track you can only toggle through tracks.

It depends on how long it's off for. If it's only off for ten minutes or so, it will pick up where you left off. If it's off for much longer than that, it goes back to the first song you downloaded.

Yes there is a folder view and you can play the files of a specific folder regardless of artist or album name.

My experience was that it kept re-creating my entire library every time I tried to single out a song to go into my playlist. One of the many reasons I sent it back. Good luck if if's working for you.

I have not tried playlists. You can add folders containing music and play from there but it will still play all music. I'm gonna try a playlist tonight and see if it will only play that.

thanks for your question i do have music on the player but only in one folder but it should play separate folders so yes it will play separate folders it is a very good music player if your music files have album art associated with them it will show album art- its like this if you have one song in one folder then you have another folder in the same folder that has a lot of songs as the one song in the one folder it will play the songs in the folder after playing the first song hope that makes sense -----lol

Yes! You can play your songs and open other apps at the same time and it wont stop The músic.

Yes you just have to set up a play list in advance, or jump around your music to find what you want. I have different play lists for different activities.

It can skip, go back songs, pause, volume, change playlists. It doesn't rewind or ff, it will just change the track. This device only lasted a year working.

I don't know as I only use one playlist. Didn't know that was an option. Will try it.

If you go in the Menu, you can scroll to different albums. Otherwise, I keep it on "Shuffle" mode mostly, and it easily can skip to next song when pressing the "forward" button, or backwards for previous songs (song to song). I hope this helps.

Yes you can select artist or album or song. Its a easy mp3 to work. I have 2 now. I download from my computer on to device. Battery last 4 hrs maybe. Charges fast. Holds enough for any music lover.

Yes. You can also pause with one click and forward to next song with 2 clicks. Works great very happy.

Ok Jan! My guess you are really talking about "shuffle mode". This mode ramdomly goes from one song to song to another, but not in the order you have them in. It appears that your player is jumping around from song to song. Check it out. See if you are in the setting " Random Shuffle Mode". If it is! GET OUT OF IT! Hope this helps!

Unfortunately, this is my biggest gripe about all MP3 players - PROGRAMABILITY! The only way you're going to be able to play the way you want is to build playlists on your computer and then select random play. Or you can use the bookmark feature directly on the Gigabeat and have it randomly play. There is no way to play just an artist or genre folder randomly.
